We also replaced my TB shaft seals... It was my only leak! Mellon and I were both amazed at how well its sealed up now. We still need to see if its affected the tune... Should get around to that soon.

Not sure if hp changed since but 11.91 with how much WHP?

Not bad but I would think the mph would be a little higher.

Kevin removed the stock rubber intake pipe and HKS filter to replace it with the Buschur intake pipe and filter. We found that it made a little more torque at 28psi but dropped it to 27psi to keep the power up top from falling off as much due to heat. (stock fmic ftl!)

nice gains...next up, retuned on e85 and or a LICP. Kevin would have posted this up himself but he's driving us back from MOD

stock intake pipe vs buschur

Yep, I had a feeling the stock rubber intake was holding me up some. Next mod should be a LICP.
